Captain Kangaroo

My son attends UC. We went down for the UCF / UC game last fall. Gladly paid $120 for a pair of tickets. So did the other 40k+ fans in attendance. We lucked into a nice tailgate lot that was only $25. Friday night game. Had a blast. Here was the crowd from my vantage point. Not quite InfoCision.? HeHere is the student section rushing the field after knocking off a Top 25 team. My son is 985th from the right.? At least I'll have a team to root for this fall.??

January-March was actually debated as an option? Maybe if they hold the games in the Stiles Center, but that's the only way.

I guess when considering all the old school bars/owners, Manny is the Last Man Standing.

From what I hear, the 2021 slogan is being added to the truck. It's either - "Division 2 Fever - Catch it!" or "Akron Football - The Northwest Missouri State of the East"

I will guess they keep the scholarship, but a year's athletic eligibility is lost. You can't have a 2021 football team with 110 scholarship players.

Hopefully we are not making decisions regarding Zips Athletics to placate the faculty union / senate.

He’s on a pace to be a 5-⭐️ within the next 48 hours!

A few questions: How deep does the task force really need to dig...isn't it as simple as reviewing Akron's budget and comparing it to like-minded programs? It should take roughly 15 minutes? Does anyone on the task force have a vested interest in the finding's outcome? Was anyone on the task force responsible for putting the football program in the hole it's presently in? (i.e. did they sign off on hiring guys like Wistercil, Ianello, etc)? The George Thomas article from a week or so ago pretty much laid it all out. The task force should read it.

Please discuss and debate whatever pandemic-related facts and opinions you'd like within this thread. Please keep them out of the sports threads.

When you enroll as a full time student, I believe. You can pay for your own 9 credits and the clock doesn’t tick.

I would assume they pay for the fall, and then get put on scholarship in the spring (when they officially join the team).

I believe he can enroll and take classes, but not as a full time student. He would officially join the team in the spring.

I'm old enough to remember when doctors said menthol cigarettes were good for you, and thalidomide was a great way to cure morning sickness. Even doctors get a little more educated over time.

TJ DeShields Is a scholarship QB that still exists.

There's renewed hope for the Liechtenstein women's fencing team to medal in Tokyo. The USA's loss is their gain. If that costs me a regular fry, I'll be pissed.

Can we have a few ushers stand up in the aisle too?

How much Boz Scaggs and Orleans can one man take?

Make the pain stop.... Since we cut down the nets after the MAC basketball championship in early March, being a Zips fan has absolutely sucked. One depressing, embarrassing news release after another...

Another Penn Hills safety replaces Featherstone. Can't go wrong with Penn Hills players. ?

The Zips version of Dirk Nowitzki

I can't believe he'd redshirt. He'll be 20 years old when MAC play begins this season. He's roughly 6' 10" and has international playing experience. We lost Riak and Sayles. X too. At worst I'd give him "Ali Ali Level" freshman minutes.

MaxPreps_Epps 6' 5", 255 lbs. LT from Georgia

Reading up on him, it seems like he had some injury problems. That's been the case with a lot of our P5 transfers over the years (Ryan Bain, Warren Ball, Deltron Sands, etc.). They couldn't stay on the field. I hope he's healthy.

The NBA lottery's loss is Buffalo's gain.
